Stalking Jack the Ripper: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Seventeen-year-old Audrey Rose Wadsworth was born a lord's daughter, with a life of wealth and privilege stretched out before her. But between the social teas and silk dress fittings, she leads a forbidden secret life.

Against her stern father's wishes and society's expectations, Audrey often slips away to her uncle's laboratory to study the gruesome practice of forensic medicine. When her work on a string of savagely killed corpses drags Audrey into the investigation of a serial murderer, her search for answers brings her close to her own sheltered world.

The story's shocking twists and turns, augmented with real, sinister period photos, will make this #1 New York Times bestselling debut from author Kerri Maniscalco impossible to forget.

Praise for Stalking Jack the Ripper:
A #1 New York Times Bestseller from its first week!
"An entertaining debut full of twists and turns, perfect for fans of historical fiction and mystery."—School Library Journal
"Maniscalco has created a serious, sharp-minded, and forward-thinking protagonist in Audrey Rose, whose fearlessness will endear her to readers looking for an engaging historical thriller. [A] gruesome but engrossing story."—Publisher's Weekly
"Audrey Rose Wadsworth prefers breeches to ball gowns, autopsies to afternoon tea, and scalpels to knitting needles. Though her father, Lord Edmund, has forbidden it, Audrey covertly studies forensic medicine...while "the Ripper" remains two steps ahead, lurking where Audrey least expects....Maniscalco's portrayal of scientific invention in a newly industrial era will serve as a fine first foray into Victorian classics."—Booklist
"*A marvelous yet somewhat gruesome mystery...The Ripper scenes are visceral, and the plot dovetails with history perfectly. An unexpected twist makes the ending worth the wait. A must-have."—School Library Journal, starred review
"Audrey is a young woman eager to use her brains and willing to flaunt society's rules....This mystery pays homage to classics like Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein [and] will satisfy those readers looking for historical mystery, a witty heroine, and a little romance."—School Library Connection
"This is a book that will keep you up at night and haunt you during the day."—Beth Revis, author of the New York Times bestselling series Across the Universe
"With ample knowledge of Ripper lore, Maniscalco creates a steadfast and headstrong heroine who is as comfortable in gloves of blood as she is in watered silk. Filled with plenty of gory details, and no shortage of possible suspects, Stalking Jack the Ripper conveys the panic, paranoia, and fascination of 1880s London with a madman on the loose."—Kendare Blake, author of Anna Dressed in Blood and Three Dark Crowns
"Kerri Maniscalco paints a picture of nineteenth-century London that lives and breathes in wonderfully sinister fashion. You won't want to put this book down."—Renee Ahdieh, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Wrath and the Dawn
"Dark and suspenseful...this book kept me guessing until its final, terrifying scenes."—Anna Carey, author of the EVE trilogy

The narrator was perfect in crafting out the characters. It is also one of the most memorable novels I have read, and would totally recommend. Suitably played melodies can be heard softly in the background, vividly recreating the scenes in the book, yet by no means drowning out or obscuring the narration. Don't let the title give you the wrong initial impression: rest assured it is not about some Victorian girl stalking and falling head over heels after Jack the Ripper. The plot is by far more enticing than that. All in all, give it a try. It will hopefully suit your tastes and worthwhile.

Beautifully conducted

Quite an enjoyable Victorian romp obviously aimed at a younger market - rather marred by an annoying soundtrack of background muzak and a narrator with some rather bizarre pronunciations of everyday words!

A reasonable tale with annoying music

The best audio I've listened to ever. I have read Stalking Jack the Ripper several times but I will never tire of this audio. Thomas Cresswell is my spirit guide

Best audiobook

Unfortunately, I found this story very hard to enjoy. It was too historically inaccurate at times and none of the characters seemed to show any believable emotion so I felt disinterested for a significant proportion of the book. Also, this audiobook has a soundtrack that runs throughout. Sometimes it is ambient effects, other times it is background music. I can see that the intention is to create an immersive experience but I found it hugely distracting and, on several occasions, had to go back and listen to the story again as I had found myself focused more on the background sound. Also, if you prefer to listen to your audiobook at an increased speed, the background sounds become tinny and distorted, making it even more distracting. If returning it had been an option, I most certainly would have.
